Great Smokey Mountain Getaway!
This was a really sweet cabin, comfy and cozy and very well equipped for our six night stay in mid September 2024. The cabin is about 5 miles off a main road and the last mile is gravel, so it was slow going with our AW Subaru. We thought it would be okay, but we would recommend an SUV or a car that sits a bit higher. The bedroom is more like a loft so there are almost no places where you can stand to full height. Taller, larger, less agile individuals may have difficulty managing the steep stairs to the loft and scooching sideways along the wall to get into the bed. We did fine and we are older adults, but I am short and thin, and my husband is also slim and agile. I would highly recommend a very deep cleaning of this cabin. We don't expect a cabin in the woods to be perfectly clean, but this cabin needs help, especially high touch areas, counters, and counter appliances. The oven door was very difficult to open and was very greasy and grimey. The owner might want to check up on their cleaning service. Sometimes guest are not reporting this and the owner is unaware of the problem. Otherwise, this is a great, affordable spot!

the historic Helene stay
okay except oven did not work on Bake. Oven door will not open without lots of manpower. Extra toilet paper (2 packs) were both partially eaten by mice or rats. Could not use toaster because had dead roaches in bottom. The drawer in bathroom had a mouse bed in it. Clearly has not been cleaned and checked lately. Had to leave a day early because of flooding from the storm. Glad I did purchase insurance. Lost all cell, internet and TV Thursday night. The small stream looked live a roaring river. The road into Whittier was blocked by firemen because it was under water. Will not stay at this property again. Oh! I have photos to backup my comments just in case. Joe

Perfect Mountain Vacation!
Best vacation we've had in years! The cabin was secluded, without being in the middle of nowhere, which is exactly what I was looking for. Cabin was larger than expected. Very well stocked. Not that far from the national Park, where we spent every day. Really enjoyed the porch swing, and used the bbq grill every day. It was very quiet, only heard the creek outside. My teenager didn't want to come but there would've been plenty of room for him, and the other 2 young adult kids. Can't wait to come back in the fall sometime and make use of the wood burning fireplace. Thank you for sharing your cabin!

The was a great oasis in the mountains. The cabin is much cuter in person than in pictures and sits in a more lovely in the woods. The road is steep and a little rough to get up there, but it was manageable. We spent hours sitting on the porch listen to the stream and enjoying the view. We will definitely be back.

SPECTACULAR!!!
This place is incredible! Absolutely beautiful cabin nestled deep in the woods. A small creek out front allows you to hear running water all day and all night. Porch swing on the front porch accompanied by rocking chairs made that area my personal fav. Very remote, so if you’re one to get bored easily I suggest bringing some dvds along. Kitchen is stocked to the gills. Honestly the only thing you need to bring is yourself. People will mention the driveway, I’ll just say if you have a large truck you will not be making it. EXTREMELY tight turns, having said that most cars will make this with no issues. All in all, the best place I’ve ever stayed for a price that doesn’t break the bank. BTW, Lauren is fantastic about giving details and making this process quick and painless. Thumbs up all around; we will be visiting again soon!!!

Quite rustic getaway
The cabin was clean, bedroom was in loft had to climb very steep and narrow stairs to get to it. Could not stand up had to crawl on hands and knees to get into bed. Slept downstairs on pullout couch bed. Road to cabin graveled with sharp turns. Culvert at bottom of roar needs to have a marker. Got my vehicle in it cost $150.00 to have wrecker pull it out. Cabin was clean but dimly lighted.

Great getaway
Wonderful cabin. Quiet and peaceful. They provide everything you might need. The porch/deck is great for sitting out and listening to the nearby creek. Has a BBQ grill, which is nice. The road up is rough, but not overly difficult. Surrounding area (Bryson City and Cherokee) is nice with lots to do. As with all VRBOs, the cleaning fee is too high, but besides that would definitely recommend. Glad I picked this cabin.

Great little cabin, but maybe not for little ones.
Not the easiest road to get up if you’re not used to driving off-road. Gravel road, sharp turns and the driveway will require a 2-3 point turn at the bottom and top of you are in a full size truck. The cabin was great, don’t get me wrong, and worth the drive. Only issue we had was there’s not much hot water, and taking a small child that is used to baths was tough. The owner worked with us and was more than generous with us. Will be a great place to bookmark in the future when that’s not as big of an issue. Very clean, cozy, and simple.

We had a great time at this cabin! It is so beautiful and cozy. Perfectly off the beaten path which we love because we live out a ways, ourselves. Cabin was very clean, and we'll equipped with everything you'd need for a stay. The location was great and was far enough away, but close enough to still take a short drive and enjoy Cherokee and Bryson City. I would come back and stay here again, no hesitation.
